SilenTile® HX-A
ÜRÜN BİLGİSİ
SilenTile® HX
SilenTile® HX is a multi-layer constraint type, structure borne noise and vibration damping material, designed to reduce the vibrations and can realise easiness of processing and a low cost at the same time, in aluminium, steel, fibre-reinforced plastics, and carbon composite surfaces. Using the latest polymer alloy technology SilenTile® HX has a unique high viscous damping and isolation properties over a wide temperature range of -20 C° to 120 C°. The self-adhesive technology provides the ease of installation and enables the product to withstand temperatures up to 120 C° without delaminating from the substrate (short term exposure only). In addition, SilenTile® HX has excellent adhesion to primed steel, lacquered steel, aluminium, and low surface energy substrates such as polypropylene, PVC and polyethylene. SilenTile® HX has a wide range of application area, suitable for nautical applications e.g. damping of hull, bulkhead, and deck; and for automotive applications such as damping of body panels e.g. doors, roof, fenders, and truck.

Application
Surface preparation:
To obtain optimum adheasion, the bonding surfaces must be well unified, clean, and dry. Typical surface cleaning solvent is a 50:50 mixture of isopropyl alcohol (IPA) and water. For heavy oils or grease, a degreaser or solvent-based cleaner may be required and should be followed by cleaning with IPA/water. Abrading a surface, followed by cleaning with IPA/water, can remove heavy dirt or oxidation, and can increase surface area to improve adhesion. Porous surfaces and fibered materials need to be sealed to provide a unified surface, and for unique materials such as glass and glass-like materials, copper and copper containing metals and plastics or rubber, special surface preparation may be required.
Application method:
Bond strength is dependent upon the amount of adhesive-tosurface contact developed. Firm application pressure develops better adhesive contact and helps improve bond strength. Peel of the release liner and apply the tile onto the unified, clean, and dry substrate, apply firm hand pressure, or better use a roller to push the damping tile onto the substrate. Minimum coverage: 80% of total area. Recommended application temperature: above 10 C°.
